They need new variants, more lockdowns, more alarms about medical shortages, because once their flow of misinformation stops, it will leave a vacuum for the truth to finally hit the mainstream.
Proof? Ivermectin and HCQ could've ended this in its tracks. They are suppressing that because anything that works will leave a hole in media coverage where they won't have hysteria to peddle. Hysteria keeps the populace occupied, panicked and militarized against each other. That last sentence describes the US media in a nutshell.
The really telling thing was that they wouldn’t even allow people to try Ivermectin or HCQ. They were like demons, screaming to drown out anyone who dared even suggest it. Normally Drs would have tried the least invasive options first, but instead they stalled until patients had to be put on ventilators. Whatever happened to “do no harm”?
